What if you snag another one while you're doing that?

Why not jus have a smoke, drink a beer, set up the tripod, rub one out, clean your lenses, take a piss, re-rig your gear, pick some boogers...

Lot's of other productive ways to while away that time without risking having two fish flopping around on the grass simultaneously.

JT, you're ethics here are questionable.

Having more than one fish flopping around on the grass is not cool dude.

Not cool.

I keep a stringer on my belt. I just hook up any secondary fish to it while I wait. Sometimes- if the fishings a hot- ill just hook em all up to the stringer and then take pictures one a a time at the end if the day. That works pretty well. They're pretty tires out after a day of fishing and you can pretty much just take your shot right away, and don't have to keep them out of the water so long.

Sportsmanship and ethics are pretty much the definitive traits from which my character is made.

And Fatman, I'm not fighting your battles for you. You want The Wave to leave, you deal with it.

But because I like you, I will give you a Protip. You can start by posting in his thread and tell him that you don't want him here. If he fights back and tells you to go fuck yourself, you probably do want him here. If he leaves and never comes back, you were correct and he did not belong anyway.

If you end up with a boring miserable life because you listened to your mom, your dad, your teacher, your priest, or some guy on television telling you how to do your shit, then you deserve it.

Your sig line would indicate otherwise...

Are you fucking retarded? That's the same as someone reading your signature line, and believing Steven Wright actually went fishing with Dali, who caught every other fish with a dotted line.

Or are you so fucking dumb, that you believe everyone's signature but yours should be taken literally?

Sometimes you Drake members are so stupid I am authentically surprised. And that's aside from you giddy weirdoes getting all excited from catching bait-sized fish out of your backyard streams with $1,000 equipment.

The library is too full and life is too short to struggle through a book.
